I TRIED TO WRITE A SONG THAT WOULD MAKE YOU CRY 
BUT IT JUST DIDN’T WORK, AND I DON’T KNOW WHY

I FOUND A KIND OF RHYTHM, PUT A BACKBEAT TO IT
BUT IT JUST DIDN’T FLOW, AND I REALLY BLEW IT

MOVE OUT OF YOUR SHADOWS AND SEE THE LIGHT
SEE THAT STAR THAT SHINES SO VERY BRIGHT

I JUST WANT TO SEE THOSE TEARS YOU HIDE
THE ONE’S THAT’LL FLOW WHEN YOU DITCH YOUR PRIDE

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN TO HELP ME WRITE THAT SONG
TO SHOW TO ME WHERE IT WENT SO WRONG

AND TOGETHER WE CAN BRING THAT RHYTHM TO LIFE
STOP THAT PAIN THAT CUTS LIKE A KNIFE

I TRIED TO WRITE A SONG THAT WOULD MAKE YOU CRY 
BUT IT JUST DIDN’T WORK, AND I DON’T KNOW WHY

Melomedic

A fast and up beat song with a particularly melodic chorus in which the lyrical I promises a second person to be their cure and to make them lose their worries and doubts. The song is intended as a fast pop song that is intended to put the listener in a good mood.

Mr. Cool

By Andrea Pflüger

Diese Situation kennen wahrscheinlich viele Menschen. Man streitet sich oder trennt sich gar und es fällt einem dann schwer, auf den anderen zuzugehen, sich zu entschuldigen oder miteinander zu reden. Nach außen hin will man sich seine Gefühle/Leiden nicht anmerken lassen, da man Angst hat, dass dies ein Zeichen von Schwäche wäre. Doch oftmals ist es es einfach wert, über seinen Schatten zu springen. Dies gilt auch für die Mrs. Cool.
